Bakersfield Police say a fight in Northwest Bakersfield possibly between members of two biker gangs was an "isolated incident".

A fight broke out at the intersection of Calloway and Rosedale Highway at about 2:15 Tuesday afternoon. Witnesses say the fight was between members of the Hell's Angels and Mongols motorcycle gangs. 

Witnesses said one of the men got out of a car and began fighting with a man on a motorcycle. One person was stabbed during the fight and police took two other people into custody. 

On Wednesday morning, Bakersfield Police said they would not be increasing patrol units in the area because they believed it was an isolated incident.
